What AdBlue does in the fuel system
AdBlue is a solution of urea and water meant for the exhaust. In the fuel tank it does not mix with diesel but sinks to the bottom – right where the pump draws fuel. When the water evaporates, hard crystals block filters and injectors.

If it has just happened: three steps
Keep the engine off
Do not start the engine or switch on the ignition – not even to move away from the pump.
Keep the driver door shut if you can
On some cars the fuel pump starts when the driver door opens. Get in from the passenger side if you need to.
Stay safe and call
Hazard lights on. At a station tell the staff; on the road wear a hi-vis vest and wait behind the barrier. Then call +49 761 59415165.
What happens next
Only in the tank
AdBlue sits at the bottom. We drain and flush the tank.
Ignition on or engine ran briefly
AdBlue is in lines and filter. We flush the system and change the filter.
Engine ran for long
Crystals and corrosion can damage pump and injectors; a workshop is then needed.

Common questions: AdBlue in the diesel tank in Berlin
What if it was only a small amount?
Even a small amount sinks to the bottom and is drawn in first. Do not start the engine; have the tank drained.
I already started the engine. What now?
Switch off at once and do not restart. Lines and filter then need flushing as well.
Does insurance pay?
Usually not: in Germany partial cover (Teilkasko) excludes misfuelling, and many comprehensive policies do too. Check your terms.
Which language is the phone line?
The phone line is run in German. Have your vehicle, fuel type and location ready – short answers are enough.
